THIS IS PATHETIC,! Politicians are really getting stingy with our tax money! Quess next year they will say only certain shoes we can buy and where we can buy them. When we go to vote this is really something to remember. Gee its only 3 days. Dont you get enough from lottery, property taxes, sales tax, licences fee, permits, ect! We are taxed to death in florida. Greed at its finest.
